Merle Haggard - 1929 Lyrics

I’m only 20 and Merle’s my favorite singer

r i p merle,wat een specialen stem,mooien melodie,en een perfecte begelijding

Lord, I lived thru this time, hope it never happens again.

Hadn't heard this one before and I'm a Merle fan.
Great tune.
RIP Merle

To pick a Merle Haggard song as the best ever song done by him is nigh on impossible, but this one's damn near the top

To quote George, " Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes, ?" It never got better than Merle, Willie, and Waylon...

I agree with you earl t bird...The good times are really over!

A dangerous man with a song! Rip my friend!

Gifted is what I say about Merle in every way!

All my life I've heard about
Hard depression days
They so resemble times we're living now
And old news of yesteryear
Sounds like yesterday
And hunger lines always look the same somehow

Are we living now in 1929? 
A dollar bill ain't worth one thin dime
And tricks are sometimes played upon the mind
Are we living now in 1929?  

Old songs tell about
the way it was back then
I think I've sung em all
From time to time
It looks like we are headed for 
The same old fall again
But a hard depression blues
Would sure do fine
===
The devil's changed the candy flavor sign
Somehow we've gone to drugs instead of wine
But old skid row is still alive
With the demon rum
Is it the eighties now or 1929?

I love this song! Thank God for Merle Haggard... :)
